LEE MINSHULL has told his Leatherhead team-mates to have “no regrets” after tonight’s FA Cup replay against Billericay Town, calling for the Tanners to give it their all to make it into the second round proper.

Leatherhead were held to a 1-1 draw by Glenn Tamplin’s star-studded Essex side on November 5, after Billy Bricknell’s penalty cancelled out Jack Midson’s opener.

And the two Isthmian League Premier Division sides will do battle once again tonight, this time in front of the BT Sport cameras, with a place in the second round proper and an away fixture at League Two club Wycombe Wanderers at stake.

Despite being one of the more experienced campaigner in the squad at 32, this is the furthest Minshull has got in the FA Cup and the former AFC Wimbledon defender is hoping the run isn’t over yet.

“It’s such a good opportunity and we shouldn’t let it pass us by. They might think that being young, they might get further opportunities but you never know how it will work out.”
